Title: |
A two dimensional lattice of knots by $C_{2n}$-moves |
We consider a local move on a knot diagram, where we denote the local
move by $M$.
If two knots $K_1$ and $K_2$ are transformed into each other by a finite
sequence of $M$-moves, the $M$-distance between $K_1$ and $K_2$ is the
minimum number of times of $M$-moves needed to transform $K_1$ into $K_2$.
A $M$-distance satisfies the axioms of distance.
A two dimensional lattice of knots by $M$-moves is the two dimensional
lattice graph which satisfies the following : The vertex set consists of
oriented knots and for any two vertices $K_1$ and $K_2$, the distance on
the graph from $K_1$ to $K_2$ coincides with the $M$-distance between $K_1$
and $K_2$, where the distance on the graph means the number of edges of
the shortest path which connects the two knots.
Local moves called $C_n$-moves are closely related to Vassiliev invariants.
In this talk, we show that for any given knot $K$, there is a two dimensional
lattice of knots by $C_{2n}$-moves $(n>1)$ with the vertex $K$.

Title: |
On Tripp's conjecture about the canonical genus
for Whitehead doubles of alternating knots |
In 2002, J. Tripp conjectured that the minimal crossing number of a knot coincides with the canonical genus of its Whitehead double. In this talk, I'd like to introduce a family of alternating knots for which Tripp's conjecture holds.

Title: |
A generalization of an enumeration on self-complementary graphs
for edge colored graphs |
We plan to give a generalization of Tazawa-Ueno's theorem.
Tazawa-Ueno's theorem is a formula for enumeration on self-complementary
bipartite graphs with given number of vertices. We generalize the enumeration
to edge colored bipartite graphs. We also consider the case of edge colored
digraphs as well as ordinary graphs. This talk is a joint work with Yasuo
Ohno.

Title: |
Ribbon torus knots presented by virtual knots with up to 4 crossings |
A ribbon torus knot embedded in the 4-space is presented by a welded virtual
knot through the Tube operation due to Shin Satoh.
We make an attempt of classification of ribbon torus knots presented by
virtual knots with up to 4 crossings, where we use the list of virtual
knots enumerated by Jeremy Green. We make use of the classification of
the groups of the virtual knots with up to 4 crossings due to Atsushi Ichimori.

Title: |
Covering link polynomials for generalized Kinoshita's theta-curve |
Kinoshita's theta-curve $\theta(1,1,1)$ is almost unknotted theta-curve,
that is, its constituent knots are all trivial. We consider generalized
Kinoshita's theta-curve $\theta(i,j,k)$ by adding full-twists. In this
talk, we introduce covering link polynomials to classify $\theta(i,j,k)$.
We also mention influence on order-3 vertex connected sum of $\theta(i,j,k)$
and $\theta(i',j',k')$.

Title: |
Mochizuki $3$-cocycle invariant of links
in $S^3$ is one of Dijkgraaf-Witten invariant |
Let p be an odd prime, and $\phi$ the Mochizuki $3$-cocycle of the dihedral
quandle of order $p$. Using $\phi$, Carter-Kamada-Saito combinatorially
defined a shadow cocycle invariant of links in $S^3$. Let $M_L$ be the
double covering branched along a link L. Our main result is that the cocycle
invariant of L is equal to the Dijkgraaf-Witten invariant of $M_L$ with
respect to $Z/pZ$ up to scalar multiples. We further compute Dijkgraaf-Witten
invariants of some $3$-manifolds. In this talk, we present a simple proof
of the equality. This work is joint with Eri Hatakenaka.

Title: |
Surface-links represented by 4-charts and quandle cocycle invariants II |
In this talk, we study surface-links represented by 4-charts and their
dihedral quandle cocycle invariants. As a consequence, we characterize
4-charts representing some surface-links including a 2-twist spun trefoil.
We also prove that the braid index of a connected sum of a 2-twist spun
trefoil and a spun trefoil is five, which is the answer to a special case
of Tanaka's Problem.

Title: |
On the universal invariant of bottom tangles |
bottom tangle is a tangle in a cube whose boundary points are arranged
on the bottom line, and every link can be obtained from a bottom tangle
by closing. The universal sl_2 invariant of bottom tangles has the universality
property with respect to the colored Jones polynomial of links. In this
talk, we study the universal sl_2 invariant of certain types of bottom
tangles.

Title: |
Quandle cocycle invariant of a certain T^2-link |
We consider a surface link which is presented by a simple branched covering over the standard torus, which we call a torus-covering link. A torus-covering $T^2$-link is determined from two commutative classical $m$-braids, which we call basis $m$-braids, and we denote by $\mathcal{S}_m(a,b)$ the torus-covering $T^2$-link with basis $m$-braids $a$ and $b$. In this talk we present the quandle cocycle invariant of $\mathcal{S}_m(b, \Delta^{2n})$, by using the quandle cocycle invariants of the closure of $b$, where $\Delta$ is a half twist of a bundle of $m$ parallel strands.

Title: |
Infinite type invariant of surface braids with 4 branch points |
Hurwitz action of the n braid group $B_n$ on the n-fold direct product
of a group $G$ is studied. Hurwitz action can be used in study of surface
braids. In this talk, we will give an infinite type invariant of surface
braids with 4 branch points by determining the orbit decomposition of Hurwitz
action on $G^4$ when $G$ is the semi-direct product $S_m\ltimes Z^m$, where
$S_m$ is the symmetric group of degree m and $Z^m$ is the $m$-fold direct
product of the cyclic group $Z$.

Title: |
Fox colorings and cocycle invariants of roll-spun knots
(joint work with Masahide Iwakiri (OCAMI)) |
A roll-spun knot is a knotted 2-sphere in 4-space obtained by spinning
a classical knot with rollings along the longitude. We show how to calculate
the cocycle invariant of a roll-spun knot generally, and prove that the
invariant of any roll-spun knot is always trivial in the case of the dihedral
quandle.

Title: |
A relation between sharp move and Delta move |
In this talk, we study certain local moves for knots. First we observe
a relation between the sharp move and the Delta move. We show that the
sharp-unknotting number of a knot is less than three times the Delta-unknotting
number of the knot. Second we consider a property of the sharp-Gordian
graph. The sharp-Gordian graph $\mathcal{G}_{\#}$ is a bipartite graph
because a single sharp move changes the arf invariant. We show that, for
any knot and any natural numbers $m,n$, there exists a complete bipartite
graph $K_{m,n} \subset \mathcal{G}_{\#}$ such that $K_{m,n}$ contains the
knot.

Title: |
Normalization of the Rubinstein-Scharlemann graphic of Morse functions |
The Rubinstein-Scharlemann graphic was introduced for studying Heegaard
splittings and it has made a remarkable contribution to the
recent development of this branch. However, the graphic is constructed
through a pair of smooth functions on the 3-manifold and so has much ambiguity.
To extract the maximum imformation from the graphic, we have to understand
how the graphic can be changed by deforming these functions. In this talk,
we collect local moves on the graphic realized by deforming the functions
and take an approach to the normalization of the graphic.

Title: |
Finite type invariants for a spatial handcuff graph |
We first explain a finite type invariant, or Vassliev invariant, for a
knot. Then we consider a finite type invariant for an embedded handcuff
graph in a 3-sphere: We express a basis for the vector space of finite
type invariants of order less than or equal to three for a spatial handcuff
graph in terms of the linking number, the Conway polynomial, and the Jones
polynomial of the sublinks of the handcuff graph.

Title: |
Rubinstein-Scharlemann graphic of 3-manifolds and Hempel distance |
Graphic is introduced by Rubinstein-Scharlemann for studying strongly irreducible
Heegaard splittings, and Kobayashi-Saeki showed that graphics can be regarded
as the images of the discriminant sets of stable maps from the 3-manifolds
into the plane.
In this talk, we give an introductory talk for the graphic, and also give
a talk on an application of it, that is, we give a method to estimate Hempel
distances.

On the hyperbolic volume of PSL(2,C)-representations
of fundamental groups |
Let M be a cusped 3-manifold. For a PSL(2,C)-representation of the fundamental
group of M , we can define the hyperbolic volume.
In this talk we will show that the hyperbolic volume of a representation is invariant by a mutation.

Title: |
On a homeomorphism obtained by bridge position of a knot |
For a knot in bridge position of the three sphere, we have a Heegaard
splitting of the three sphere such that the knot is included standardly
in one of the Heegaard handlebodies. Then we obtain a Heegaard splitting
of the zero surgery manifold along the knot from the Heegaard splitting
of the three sphere.
In this talk, we consider how a Heegaard surface homeomorphism of this
Heegaard splitting of the zero surgery manifold is obtained from the Heegaard
splitting of the three sphere by the zero surgery of the knot. We show
that a Heegaard surface homeomorphism is represented by a certain product
of the generators of the mapping class group of the Heegaard surface.

Chain homotopy maps for Khovanov homology |
Khovanov homology is a categorification of the Jones polynomial of links.
As written in Viro's paper (O.Viro, Fund. Math. 184 (2004), 317--342),
"the most fundamental property of the Khovanov homology groups is
their invariance under Reidemeister moves". Khovanov homology groups
are knot invariants because these groups are invariant under three types
of Reidemeister moves. By giving explicit chain homotopy maps using Viro's
definition of the homology, he proved the invariance under the first Reidemeister
moves. This talk gives chain homotopy maps ensuring the invariance under
the other Reidemeister moves. We also discuss a good property of the explicit
chain homotopy maps.

Title: |
Properties of Gauss phrase and category of regions
(with Yusuke Kiriu (Studio Phones)) |
A Gauss phrase is a totally ordered $2n$ letters in which the same letter
appears twice. It is described by a map $w$ from the ordinary ordered set
$\{1, 2, ..., 2n\}$ to an unordered set $\{1, 2, ..., n\}$. We note that
the order of the former set is important, and the latter set is just a
labelling set (i.e.\ we can take the latter set like $\{ dog, cat, ...,
bird\}$). By dividing the former set into $m$ parts, we obtain an $m$-component
Gauss phrase. The case $m=1$ is said a Gauss word. An element of the latter
set is said a crossing. If we introduce the sign $+/-$ into every crossing,
then we obtain a signed Gauss phrase, where the sign corresponds to the
local intersection number of two arcs near the crossing from the parameter.
By closing the ends, we obtain an $m$-component flat virtual link diagram.
So we can say that a Gauss phrase is a ``pre-flat virtual link diagram".
By introducing over/under information to every crossing of a signed Gauss
phrase, we obtain a virtual link diagram. You can introduce some other
structures (for example, Reidemeister equivalence) according to your purpose.
Firstly, we study properties of a Gauss phrase. As an example, we study
checkability of a diagram. The property concerns deeply with an alternating
virtual link. In particular, we discuss about uniqueness of minimal genus
assignment for special cases, and non-classicality of one-virtualized diagram.
Secondly, from the techniques above, we discuss about operations among
the complement regions of a diagram, and we define a category of regions.
The concept is a dual of nanoword theory. This kind point of view has been
already applied in proving Tait's flyping conjecture and in 2-knot theory.
We will apply for wider areas in the future study.

Title: |
On the distribution of the ordered linking warping degrees |
The ordered linking warping degree ld(D) of an ordered link diagram D is the number of non-self warping crossing points of D.
The arithmetic mean of ld(D) for all orders depends only on the non-self crossing number of D.
The standard deviation of ld(D) for all orders is zero if and only if D is in equilibrium.

Title: |
Generating sets of the mapping class group |
It is a classical problem in group theory to find small generating sets
and torsion generating sets. We will consider this problem for the mapping
class group of a closed orientable surface.
In this talk, we will introduce some generating sets of the mapping class
group. In addition, we will show that the mapping class group is generated
by 3 elements of order 3.

Title: |
Infinite sequences of mutually non-conjugate surface braids representing
same surface-links |
In this talk, we give an infinite sequence of mutually non-conjugate surface
braids with same degree representing the trivial surface-link with at least
two components and a pair of non-conjugate surface braids with same degree
representing a spun (2,t)-torus knot for t≧3.
To give these examples, we introduce new invariants of conjugacy classes
of surface braids via colorings by Alexander quandles or core quandles
of groups.
